The Leaving Cert was tough. Some of the subjects didn’t really relate to life after school, which made them pointless. I haven’t needed Pythagoras’s theorem since I left school, apart from that time I was held at ransom until I could correctly solve the value of ‘x’, but that was just the once. Here are […]

Movies sometimes end in unpredictable ways. As a consumer of movies, sometimes I feel that I could’ve done a better job at the ending. I fully respect that the writers have a lot of experience and are more qualified, but, respectfully, I know better. Let’s see some alternate movie endings. Obviously, this contains spoilers ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Bambi […]

University Challenge is very misleading. It is essentially just a quiz show, which does very little in the region of challenging anything other than the brains of University students. I believe there is room for a more wholesome version of University Challenge, complete with tasks that prepare students for life after college. Golden Week Students […]

Coffee, am I right? Much like tea, everyone has their own specific way that they prefer it. People tend to get notions surrounding coffee. There’s too many variables involved, which can result in a lot of confusion and ultimately, unsatisfied cravings. Frankly, if your coffee order has more than three words in it, you need to […]

Books, am I right? There’s a serious shortage of unfortunate book names and author combinations at the moment, so I’ve done my utmost to rectify this by completely fabricating some titles paired with overwhemingly inappropriate names. Classic me! Get your pre-orders in fast because these are guaranteed to sell out.

As you may have seen, Leonardo DiCaprio got a big fright at the Golden Globes. I believe it was an honest encounter, whereby he was having cross-table banter with a friend, probably Brad Pitt, then was caught off guard by a passer-by, in the form of Lady Gaga. Reading into this situation far too deeply, […]

Yankee Candles are everywhere. No house is fully furnished without at least one glorious smelling candle. I’ve found that the scents are sometimes quite limited. There’s definitely a market for the Yankee Candle people to broaden their selection, although that would take quite a bit of time and research. So, I’m available for freelance candle scent […]
